Robin Wright: ‘I used to steal Rod Stewart’s mail’

Actress Robin Wright was left red-faced when her ex-husband Sean Penn let slip to her childhood crush Rod Stewart that she stole his mail as a teenager.

The “Forrest Gump” star would wait outside Stewart’s Los Angeles home to catch a glimpse of the “Maggie May” hitmaker before helping herself to letters from his post box.

And the actress was left mortified when Stewart finally found out about her embarrassing secret.

She tells Britain’s The Sun, “I was completely in love with Rod Stewart. I had a huge poster of him on my bedroom wall and thought I was going to marry him. I met him for the first time with Sean… we were at a party and I was so nervous I was sweating.

“Sean introduced us both by saying, ‘Robin was in love with you and used to steal your mail.’ I did too, I used to take it from the mailbox outside Rod’s house in Los Angeles.

“I was 15 at the time and had an older friend who drove. I would wait down the end of the drive just to see Rod walking out. It was so humiliating to see him as an adult and not be in love with him anymore. It breaks the magic.”
